I just got my TX driver's license upgraded to a "Real ID" using the TX PMB. Banking good, investments good, credit cards good, taxes good. However, yesterday I was looking at the Capital One CC and it said you could check to see if you are pre-approved. As soon as i hit the address line it kick me out and said I could not use that kind of address. Oh well, it doesn't all work!
It's the 77399 zip code - that is a unique zip code for the Escapees Mail Forwarding business. If you are living in any of the houses around the property, I believe you have a 77351 zip code like everyone else in Livingston.
I went to buy something online and after putting in the credit card information, it asked for our address, which is often used to verify that it is my card. No, wouldn't take it. I contacted the company and said if BOA has no problem with my address while using the card, what is your problem. Turns out it was the zip code. She said put in another zip code for the town, did that and everything went through as planned. Whatever software they were using wouldn't allow zip codes for some types of businesses, but never really MATCH with the credit card companies. If the zip code was possible for the town and wasn't on their can't use list, it was all good. And of course, what I was buying was sent to a different shipping address.
Had the same problem with Wal-Mart when trying to set up getting groceries for curbside pickup. So told Wal-Mart that because of their attitude they wouldn't get my business, plenty of other firms are willing to do business with me.
